You need to add a listener to the Preference in your onCreate method

    final CheckBoxPreference checkboxPref = (CheckBoxPreference) getPreferenceManager().findPreference("checkboxPref");

    checkboxPref.setOnPreferenceChangeListener(new Preference.OnPreferenceChangeListener() {            
        public boolean onPreferenceChange(Preference preference, Object newValue) {
            Log.d("MyApp", "Pref " + preference.getKey() + " changed to " + newValue.toString());       
            return true;
        }
    });
